Madonna: Love Spent
You had all of me
You wanted more
Would you have married me
If I were poor?
I guess if I was your treasury
You'd have found the time to treasure me
How come you can't see
All that you need
Was right here with me
Until the end
All this pretend wasn't for free
Hold me like your money
Tell me that you want me
Spend your love on me
Spend your love on me
Now you have your money
Spend it til there's nothing
Spend your love on me
Spend your love on me
If we opened up a joint account
Would it put an end to all your doubt?
Frankly, if my name was Benjamin
We wouldn't be in the mess we're in
You played with my heart
Til death do we part
That's what you said
Now you have your fast car,
Women and bars,its gone to your head
Hold me like your money
Tell me that you want me
Spend your love on me
Spend your love on me
Love me like your money
Spend it til there's nothing
Spend your love on me
Spend your love on me
Spend your love on me
I want you to take me
Like you took your money
Take me in your arms
Until your last breath
I want you to hold me
Like you hold your money
Hold on to me
Til there's nothing left
Love spent,really love spent
Yeah I'm love spent
Wondering where the love went
Love spent, yeah I'm love spent
Really love spent
Wondering where it all went
I want you to take me
Like you took your money
Take me in your arms
Until your last breath
I want you to hold me
Like you hold your money
Hold me in your arms
Until there's nothing left
Nothing left
Nothing left
Nothing left
Love spent
Really love spent
Yeah, I'm love spent
Wondering where the love went
Love spent
Yeah I'm love spent
Really love spent
Wondering where it all went
I want you to take me like you took your money
Take me In your arms until your last breath
I want you to hold me like you hold your money
Hold me in your arms until there's nothing left
Nothing left
Nothing left
Nothing left
Nothing left
Thandie Newton: Not just a pretty exotic actress
I've been watching TED (IDEAS WORTH SPREADING ) www.ted.com ,quite often lately. A collections of public speaking talks : ranging from technology, entertainment, social skills to the global skills. Anything that is worth sharing and spread to mankind. Face it we need these every now and then. I stumbled upon Thandie Newton. A british born actress with a Welsh and Zimbabwe mix. I am so in love with this talk and watching it over and over again.
Loving how smart, eloquent and compassionate her true personality . The beauty inside of her that seems to be more outstanding than her outside beauty.
Excerpt from TED:
Actor Thandie Newton tells the story of finding her "otherness" -- first, as a child growing up in two distinct cultures, and then as an actor playing with many different selves. A warm, wise talk, fresh from stage at TEDGlobal 2011.
Swinging from Hollywood blockbusters to sensitive indie films, Thandie Newton brings thoughtfulness and delicate beauty to her work
Enjoy

The Power of Communication
Communication can be universal and subjective, from simple exchange of a glance , to verbal language corresponding, to written words (blogging for example) to body language(a subtle and gentle touch can translate so many things) I believe much in communicating well. All my life, I work and learn hard to communicate properly and improve myself in this area as much as I could. As I'm working, it becomes my profession and my passion. Lately I'm doing my best to communicate well and use it as my side profession. I'm in the midst of exposing myself in a world of emceeing, I can do all sorts of event(parties, concerts, events, launching and functions) my trilingual skills(ENGLISH, MALAY and MANDARIN) always come in handy, my self and individual style of emcee will make me different anyone else. Trust me when I say these: I'm not perfect, but I'm willing to learn and be criticize to improve myself, I welcome any critics and comments. I will not fall to a cliche and stereotype emcees , I will make it myself unique. Care to try me? contact me here (neynaprada@gmail.com)
Anyway, as I was saying, communication must somehow follows some guidelines, although there is no fine line on communicating in this world, everyone must learn to adapt both the culture and personalities of the receiving end. Execution of communication must be based on understanding with hopes of smoother mutual agreements for both parties.
I'm speaking on my 30 years experience in this area(which is back to my actual subject:communication), some people choose different type of communicating and expressing. A dear friend of mine use lyrics of songs to express his anger and happiness, some use emails to confront an issues(as some may feels that face to face communicating can or may lead to a distraction) some like myself, prefer to do it face to face, looking at reaction and emotions of the person you talk to can help to improve the end product of anything. Call me old fashion, in anything (be it relationships and relationships) I prefer to talk personally, rather than using old the latest technologies(i.e whatsapping,wechating ,blackberry messaging, emails, Facebook status updating, mobile texting and now 'twittering') I even find talking on the phone doesn't fit my personal criteria of being personal(mind my pun) I prefer meeting the person, talk to them in person and experience it eye to eye/body to body(in some cases). That's my style of communicating.
My ways of communication has gradually change the past few years, I used to be an observer, I used to be the clown that makes every laugh with my vulgar, dirty jokes. I grew out of that phase(not extremely much, I still sustained the sex-citing side of me)
These days, being bitchy and blunt can be a bit outdated, when the real foundation in anything is basically being honest and expressive in communicating. We all love someone who is sincere and generous with words(ala Paula Abdul) but there must a strike balance of bluntness (Simon would be too much to digest)
I'm glad that most issues that I faces , I've resolved them with what I regards as a good communication skills that I've possessed . I always believe, the only problems in you would be when you are not ready to express and being honest with yourself. You practically knows the answer to any questions, is the matter on how you find them and use it to resolve an issues. Everything you do is a choice, and the choice to use the communication skills as your weapon or shield is basically up to yourself.
Now tell me what do you think if we don't have this in us? Remember, even animals communicate, every single God's creature are given this gifts. Communication is no longer a skill, is what you have. Is not a natural born talent in you, is something you will eventually learn along the way. The choices are yours....

Alhamdulilah- I Just feel blessed..
it's 7.10am, KLIA McDonald's awaiting for breaking fast. I'm heading back to Kuching tonight, was here in KL for a short trip/ meeting and training at Plaza Sentral. I took the chance to meet up a few important people. I've been observing a few things around me lately. is like telling me something, been stumbling the same group of people over and over again, for the last 48 hours. Almost everywhere I go, I see elderly women(between 50 to 60 years old age- which is close to my mom's age) working as a cleaner or just odd workers . I see this peaceful face, working tirelessly- for me, they should not be working like these anymore, they should be spending more time at home. But life these days are more demanding and challenging as they used to be. I'm sure they must have their own reasons to do so. But still, I feel uneasy and a bit pitiful for them.
Shouldn't their children be taking caring of their mom, shouldn't their children be responsible to the person who sacrificed their life for them. Why they are neglected in that way? Don't they have the slight humane emotions in them to even let their mother works at such old age.
but who am I to judge? I'm not absolutely perfect myself. Maybe I did neglect my own mother before, maybe I was rude and being hurtful to them. Maybe I used to be rebellious to her. God knows how many time I made my mom cries. And I remembered what someone used to say to me, a single drop of tear from a mother- is like a diamond crashing on the floor. That's how sacred a mom's tear.
As I'm getting older, I can't help but be more emphatic on the things around me, and people around me. I try to be more compassionate and be more tolerant to my surroundings. I am not living in the world all by myself after all. I have to, hell I need to co-exist with everything and everyone. Mom has been such an inspirations to me and as cliche as anyone else would say, their love is so much different than a father's love. They gave you life, they share you their life- for 9 months, you share with her everything. That is something you should look into.

Helo there :)
Hey fellow readers of my humble blogs(exactly 11 of you here) 1st I like to apologize on my long hiatus on writing here. It's been almost 14 months since I last updated my blog. That was a very long long break. What's happening since you may asked. Loads of exciting things. Ranging from heartbreaking, memory worthy and life changing experience I had . I'm not going to bore anyone of you with my past, it's a part of my history(some I would like to completely mentally removed from myself. So, this is another introduction, well a re-introduction literally of my blog. I've seen some awesome changes to blogger and the fact that I can update it from almost anywhere and anytime. ( I am equipped with a macbook pro(yupp upgraded me-self finally), an Iphone 4S and an Ipad) no excuses of being a slacker no more. From today 16th November 2012, I'll update and share of my thoughts to the universe. Get ready for some serious life drama(much better than the soapy indonesian sinetron or pinoy soaps) at least my drama have more substance ..heh?!
Ciao Bella X
